Expanding the Power of Elastomers

Looking to fill a niche market or get ahead of the pack? Search no further. As one of the largest global suppliers of plastics in the industry, Dow is committed to expanding markets and transforming technologies to help customers innovate, differentiate and create value. To prove it, Dow has added more power to its already potent plastics portfolio with three new product offerings.

ENGAGE™ polyolefin elastomers
NORDEL™ IP and MG hydrocarbon rubber
TYRIN™ chlorinated polyethylene

What do these products bring to Dow’s already broad portfolio of specialty plastics and elastomers? Fantastic market solutions:

You can bridge the gap between rubber and plastic with versatile ENGAGE polyolefin elastomers, produced using INSITE™ Technology. They can be used to modify materials or as the sole polymer in molded or extruded goods. ENGAGE polymers offer a combination of flexibility and processability, low density, colorability and outstanding touch and feel.
Set higher standards in EPDM performance with NORDEL hydrocarbon rubber products, also produced using INSITE Technology. NORDEL IP hydrocarbon rubber improves yield, reduces scrap and provides exceptional polymer cleanliness, while NORDEL MG rubber delivers outstanding mixing performance.
Use TYRIN chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) resins in plastics processing to increase impact strength and resistance to ignition, chemicals, heat, low temperatures and weathering. Applications range from vinyl siding to computer housings and wire and cable. As the pioneer of CPE, Dow leads the way in advances and supply.

But that’s not all. When you work with Dow, you also reap the benefits of new product platforms, cutting-edge technologies, extensive research and development, and a keen focus on innovation – all of which is driven by customer needs.

Whether you need faster output rates, low temperature toughness, better sealability, greater flexibility or stronger adhesion, Dow is ready to meet your demands for cost-performance. Plus our world-class facilities and best practices deliver products of the highest quality and consistency – on-time and on-spec – to customers in all corners of the world.
